Can I be her?

You walked to me
Slowly, like the movies
Like James Dean,
My version

You talked to me
I listened to your stories
Amazed by how simple words
Meant so special to me

When lights went off
You kissed me,
Soft lips on me
Yes I remember, despite the bottles of alcohol
I swear I recall every bit of it

I know she's there all along
I wish I was her
Can I be her?
I thought every word you said
Were meant for me

Can I be her?
Can I be the one to put a smile on your lips?
I swear I will love your more than she loves you
I will be there, I will be there

Can I be her?
Can I rest my head on your chest?
I knew from the start
You never saw me
Can I be the one?
Can I be her?
